The word abracadabra, according to some scholars, is derived from Abraxas. He appears in Sefer Raziel HaMalakh ("the book of Raziel the angel"), a mystical work.
Abraxas (Abrasax, Abraxis)
Carl G. Jung called Abraxas the “truly terrible one” because of his ability to generate truth and falsehood, good and evil, light and darkness with the same word and in the same deed. In Jungian psychology there is no easy way out of psychic conflict; one must not only fight on the side of the angels but occasionally join the host of the Fallen Angels. According to Jung, fear of Abraxas is the beginning of wisdom, and liberation, or gnosis, is achieved by not resisting.
